Privacy
Your memory. Your key.
SecondMemory knows a lot about you, so nobody can read it without your phone. Not an AI. Not a hacker. Not even us.

The key lives in your phone.
Not on our servers, not in a password, not in an email we could reset. In the same kind of secure chip that protects your Face ID or fingerprint.
Stored locked.
Each memory is encrypted before it is saved. On our servers it is unreadable, and so are the backups.
Opened only while in use.
When an AI you allowed asks a question, your key opens just what it needs, for a short while, then it locks again.
Your recovery, not ours.
You set up a recovery key when you start. Without it and without your phone, nobody can open your memory. Including us.
Private drawer
Private things need your face or fingerprint.
Dating, your kids, your health. The most personal things go in a private drawer. When an AI asks for something in it, your phone asks you first, and only Face ID or your fingerprint opens it, just this once.
The alert on your lock screen only says that an AI is asking. What it wants appears after you unlock.

Every AI has to ask.
Connect an AI once, like adding an app to your phone. Then decide what it can read, what it can add, and whether it may ask for private things at all. Change your mind any time.

Depends on the provider’s settings
Compared in September 2026 from public product information. Memory built into AI apps differs from app to app and changes often, so check each app’s own settings.
Three promises. Checked.
Your key never leaves your phone.
It lives in the secure chip, and we never receive a copy.
Private things need your face or fingerprint, every time.
No AI, and no one at SecondMemory, can skip the approval.
Never trained on. Never sold.
